Bugri Naabu in near fatal crash few days to Regional contest

News reaching MyNewsGH.com indicates that Northern Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Daniel Bugri Naabu has been involved in a near-fatal accident on Sawla- Fufulso road near Grupe in the West Gonja District.

It is not immediately known what caused the crash, but snippets of information gathered by this portal reveal that his V8 Toyota Land Cruiser vehicle which he was on board at the time of the crash is beyond repairs.

It is believed the accident occurred on Wednesday night leading to him being rushed to the Tamale Teaching Hospital where he is currently being monitored by medical doctors at the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

Reports suggest his driver and police bodyguard who were in the vehicle with him have also suffered some severe injuries and are being attended to at the same facility.

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) goes for its Regional Congress on Saturday, April 28, 2018 to elect a new set of leaders to steer the affairs of the party for the next four years.

A total of 51 persons are seeking to contest for only ten elective slots for the regional positions of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Northern Region MyNewsGH.com has confirmed.

At the close of vetting a week ago, the 51 were found to be eligible to contest for the positions in what promises to be one of the keenest contests in the history of the party in the region.

Regional Communications Officer, Issahaku Abdul Latif who disclosed this in an exclusive interview with MyNewsGH.com added that five others are in the race with outspoken Regional Chairman, Daniel Bugri Naabu for his position.

They include; Mohammed A Baantima Samba who has been tipped by many as the favourite to give the incumbent a run for his money, Alhaji Abdallah Hindu who is the current Regional Organiser, Alhaji Mugisu Sibawey a serial contestant for the Regional Chairman, Daniel Bugri Naabu the incumbent and Amadu Inusah Dagomba Boy the Yendi Constituency Chairman.

Pundits argue that Mr Bugri Naabu faces a herculean task of beating his closest contender, Mohammed A Baantima Samba who is reported to be engaging various constituencies and in some cases has started constructing constituency offices for them.

It is also the first time the race for the Chairmanship has recorded more than 3 compared to previous contests where the numbers were either two or three.

Meanwhile, six persons are in the race for the Regional Secretary of the party including; Sule Salifu the incumbent, Abukari Iddrisu, Natoma Awusi Mahama, Sule Sambian a private legal practitioner who is leaving nothing to chance and one Mohammed Yussif Alhassan.
